Children get off the bus at the Pheasant Ridge Neighborhood Center on Tuesday, April 5, 2011, in Iowa City. State funding has been cut this year, so the Neighborhood Centers of Johnson County hopes businesses and individuals will sponsor sponsorships to help send low-income children to summer camp.
